DC WIRING / QUESTION: XLR DC Power Cord

[dsimone]

Hi,

Electrical question. Hope one of you experts can advise!

I got a battery charger with an male XLR DC connection.
Brown is #1
Blue is #2
Nothing in #3
CORD:

I need to convert the XLR DC above into to a FEMALE N+/L- regular type power connection.

It's got different coloured wiring.

I assume BLACK is hot, WHITE is neutral and GREEN is ground, but I don't know what those convert to on the XLR. How would I solder the wires together. Is #1 (brown) hot on XLR? or #2 (blue)?

Thanks in advance for help!

I would make no assumptions on color. Use a meter to check both your battery and charger output to match plus and minus.

tks

The bike has a recessed (male) 3-prong regular computer-type plug.

The charger is what I need to change the DC cord head on, from male XLR to a standard 3-prong female so I can plug it in to the bike. I wondered if with XLR the number 1 and number 2 wires had standard hot/neutral wiring assigned to them or not.
